Although 19-year-old Jack still lives at home with his mum,

After his recent HIV scare,

What I'm curious to know is, people

Do a lot of people do that?

It's about moving away from that

"Well, I'm not that sort of person."

"I wash all the time." What do you mean, you're not that sort of person?

If you're having sex... Wash it

In the majority of cases, we do not need to share what you tell us

No, it won't change anything at all.

It won't make me think twice about experimenting. I love people, really.

Once the alcohol wears off,

She's waiting for her STI results

There is nothing I can really do, can I, until I take the test.

But I don't know what I'd do.

He would be really, really upset.

It's a bacterial infection. Have the treatment for a week.
